Fog / Shrine

A collaborative EP, under the name Flame 1, produced by Burial and The Bug. The colliding of two production powerhouses here, can't wait to to hear this EP.

The record marks the first collaboration between the two producers though both have separately released material via Hyperdub in the past. Comprised of two tracks, entitled 'Fog' and 'Shrine', the 12" will be released via a new label called Pressure.

Following on from The Bug's recent sidewinding 12"s for Ninja Tune and a colossal album recorded with Earth, Fog / Shrine is possibly Kevin Martin's most soundsystem decimating collaboration yet, joining forces with the most elusive figure within the UK underground and Hyperdub mainstay, Burial.

‘Fog’ rolls along at half-speed steppers tempo, submerged deep within the roots 'n' future aesthetic of The Bug's signature beats, yet perfectly balanced by Burial's hollowed out and haunted night vision. ‘Shrine’ delves deeper inwards with the beats slowed to a crawl, the bassline hanging heavy in an atmosphere thick with smoke.
